Abstract: A device and system for delivery of a flowable biocompatible material to a tissue tract in a controlled manner generally includes a reservoir adapted to be in fluid connection with a cannula, a discharging mechanism adapted to discharge the contents of the reservoir and a cannula retractor to withdraw the cannula. The cannula retractor is operably interconnected with the discharging mechanism so that a measured quantity of the reservoir contents is smoothly discharged to substantially fill at least a portion of the tissue tract.

Abstract: Safe and convenient methods and devices for inexpensively and rapidly treating pseudoaneurysms and other subcutaneous pools of blood utilize an apparatus with an applicator that can be grasped by a user at its proximal end and which has a distal portion that can be percutaneously inserted into a pseudoaneurysm. The distal portion has at least one retaining structure on at least one surface; the retaining structure(s) serve to collectively retain a clotting agent as the distal portion is inserted into the pseudoaneurysm. The clotting agent in the retaining structure(s) is exposed to blood in the pseudoaneurysm and initiates a clotting cascade. Since the clotting agent is in the retaining structure(s) and is not forcibly injected into the blood, the clotting cascade causes blood to clot at or near the surface of the applicator. The clot is associated with the applicator until the distal portion of the applicator is removed from the pseudoaneurysm.
